My little helpers.
Finally. I have some children who WANT to help around the house. To bad it's not always HELPful. :) Their favorite, emptying the dishwasher. "I put the thing in?" Gabby always asks. (the thing is the dish detergent packet)

A Golden 9th Birthday
My neice Klaire turned 9 today..... it is her golden birthday. Happy Birthday Klaire! Last year she mentioned she wanted to get her ears peirced. I told her if she really wanted to, I would take her. So...on Sunday I took her to the mall and got them done for her! I also let her pick out some cute new earrings. She did super great and looks so cute!

This is Benny. Benny had a scary day on Friday. He got lost at Walmart. He and Gabby were both so sad, so I made a second trip to Walmart and luckily....I found him. He was laying on a shelf in the baby section next to some underwear. Poor Benny!

Gabbitude
Happy Birthday to my sweet little big Angel!!
When Gabby was just a baby, our neighbors, the Bauers, came up with this nickname: "Gabbitude" Boy, what a perfect fit for this girl! To this day, I still use that nickname, but it has mostly been shorten to "Tudes" or "Tuders"
I can't believe she is 3 already! Time goes by so fast! And I have to say that I am so proud of my "little" girl for doing so great with her potty training, just in time for her birthday!! Hip Hip Horray!
Today Gabby discovered that having a birthday is fun! Lots of attention! She brought treats to daycare to share and came home with presents! She got a musical book and coloring book from Kim and a blue stuffed cow from her friends Devin and Clara! Thank you so much everyone!! The cow has been named Benny and went to bed with Gabby tonight. "I not cry tonight," she said, "I hold Benny tight." She also received a special phone call from her cousins Erica and Morgan tonight, they called to sing Happy Birthday! So cute!
For her b-day this year, Gabby got a new big girl bike! She was very excited! The first few trys were a little drama filled, (she kept pushing the peddles backward instead of forward). She told me she wanted a different bike. You just have to keep trying I told her! She did....and within a few hours she was biking round the driveway all on her own! Yeah!!
Gabby also got some fishies of her very own! The tank has special color changing bulbs, so it is really cool she says! The fishies have been named "Gum" and "Goldfish".
Thanks for all the birthday wishes everyone! Gabby is super excited about her party on Saturday! (thanks uncle Wayne for sharing your birthday and letting Gabby have her party that day)

Hair gel?
Nolan loves to eat and he likes to get creative with his food. One of his favorites is using his food as hair gel. His favorite kind? Ketchup, pudding and ranch dressing.
